King’s Park Primary School is a non-denominational school that was built in 1903 and serves the Dalkeith community. The school is built next to King’s Park and the children have access to this for leisure and to enrich their learning opportunities. The school has a roll of approximately 500 children from P1- P7 and 72 full time ELC places.
Our school consists of two buildings within the grounds.
Our Infant building comprises of ELC-P3 learners, a library, a Support for Learning base and a dining hall.
Our Senior building comprises of P4-7 learners, our School Office, a gym hall and Nurture Room. We have recently added a temporary modular unit to support our extending school role. This houses one of our P7 classes.
All classes have access to the King’s Park playing fields to enrich learning.
Our school is part of the Dalkeith Learning Community and most of our P7 learners transition to Dalkeith High School. We have good links with the high school and with the other primary schools in our learning community.
We have highly committed staff who provide high quality teaching and learning experiences, and who contribute to the daily running of the school. Children can participate in woodwind, strings and brass instrumental tuition.
There are a variety of opportunities for our learners to take part in after school clubs, including a homework club for P4-7 learners run by our teaching staff.
